Wang Jingwei boldly threw away his high position as deputy chairman of the the Kuomintang (Chinese Nationalist Party) to move to Hanoi to achieve peace and save his homeland. He made his first public declaration at the end of last year and has, since that day, continued to make his unwavering convictions known. Despite the loss of his precious comrade Zeng Zhongming, Wang's convictions are even now spreading like wildfire among the Chinese people and their brothers overseas and threatening Chiang Kaishek. And now the Central China Daily News, his official newspaper based in Shanghai, has resisting persecution and resumed publication from the 10th.\r\n\r\nIt's said that Sun Ke carried on Sun Yat-sen's blood and Wang Jingwei carried on his thoughts. Wang Jingwei can be called Sun Yat-sen's true successor. It can be seen how dear Wang was to Sun Yat-sen by the fact that when Sun was on his deathbed he called for only three people: his wife Song Qingling, his son Sun Ke, and Wang Jingwei. He has influence in and the trust of Chinese political circles and the Chinese people and is incorruptable, living an upstanding, moral life. Despite the personal danger, he is making public what the Chinese people desire.\r\n\r\nBorn into a renown Guangdong family in 1885, he had a complicated early life as a revolutionary. Despite a long history of fighting with Chiang Kaishek, the two have joined together many times, though destiny has split them apart during the current incident. With the resumption of the Central China Daily News, Wang is tenaciously voicing his fervent convictions in the racial mission of Sino-Japanese unity for the Chinese people and peace in East Asia. Together with the South China Daily News in Hong Kong, he has gained two powerful official papers. His future efforts to save his country will be worth keeping an eye on.
